+-----------

+This hook is invoked by 'git push'. It takes no parameter, and
+exiting with non-zero status from this script causes the 'git push'
+command to abort.
+
+This script is useful for self-enforcing policies, such as running a script
+that checks for code-compliance, running automated tests, etc.  You can
+use this script to help ensure that your pushes are sane in an automatic
+fashion.
